Sven Biscop This Is Not a New World Order

Europe Rediscovers Geopolitics, from Ukraine to Taiwan

If every event in international politics is a turning point, one can only go and lie down, out of sheer dizziness. In reality, we have been living in the same multipolar world for more than three decades. Europeans are only now again getting used to how such a world of great powers works. In the process, the European Union has rediscovered the importance of geopolitics. Without geopolitical awareness, crafting good strategy is impossible. But not every problem is geopolitical, and strategy covers...

Tourism in transition

Travel tomorrow will be quite different from the tourist industry we know today. As of now, we experience a transition with fundamental changes. Even though this may at times be disturbing, it’s a good and necessary evolution: In the next generation of travel, the traveller will need to create a net positive value for the people and the places he visits.Today we are at a crossroads. How do we build that new system? Which roads lead to sustainable or regenerative travel? What are the tradeoffs and...

Hans L.M. Dassen A new philosophy of man & humanism

basic principles

In the 21st century we need a new philosophy as opposed to the old philosophy: a philosophy of man or philosophical anthropology. The importance of a new philosophy of man is that it addresses people all over the world, thus helping us to overcome our differences. And if we look a bit further into the world of the 21st century, we see that the most pressing project will be the search for meaning in the lives of human beings in a globalised world. Following the complete existential deconstruction...

Hélène van Beek | Martijn van Rheenen Wards of State

Youth care under lock and key in the Netherlands

Wards of State: In the Netherlands, minors who have been placed under state supervision or have been removed from their home environment at the order of Youth Care are what we call wards of state. Youth care in the Netherlands is a market that is driven by perverse incentives, as this book makes clear. A market where expansion and money take precedence over the welfare of young people. A world in which truth and the best possible care are not of paramount importance. The research concerns the...

Martine F. Delfos Are you listening to me?

communicating with children from four to twelve years old

Hardly any literature exists about having conversations with children. Talking to children is a daily activity for almost everyone. For professionals who work with children it is even an essential activity. Nevertheless we learn little about it in college. Besides the attention given to open question-and-answer sessions, communication with children in general is described. It deals with therapeutic assistance for children and conversations in school in particular. In ‘Are you listening to me?’ Martine...
